BIn 1901，H.G.Wells, an English writer, wrote a book describing a trip to the moon. When the explorers（探险者）landed on the moon, they discovered (发现）that the moon was full of underground cities. They expressed their surprise to the “moon people” they met. In turn, the “moon people” expressed their surprise. “Why,” they asked, “are you traveling to outer space when you dont even use your inner space?” H.G.Wells could only imagine travel to the moon. In 1969, human beings really did land on the moon. People today know that there are no underground cities on the moon. However, the question that the “moon people” asked is still an interesting one. A growing number of scientists are seriously thinking about it. Underground systems are already in place. Many cities have underground car parks. In some cities, such as Tokyo, Seoul and Montreal, there are large underground shopping areas. The “Channel”,a tunnel(隧道)connecting England and France, is now complete. But what about underground cities？Japans Taisei Corporation is designing a net work of underground systems（系统）, called “Alice Cities”. The designers imagine using surface space for public parks and using underground space for flats, offices, shopping, and so on. A solar dome (太阳能穹顶)would cover the whole city. Supporters of underground development say that building down instead of building up is a good way to use the earths space. The space, they say, can be used for farms, parks, gardens, and wilderness（荒野） . H.G.Wells “moon people” would agree. Would you?6.The explorers in H. G.

Wells travelled to the moon in 1901.B.People today know there are a lot of "moon people" and underground cities.C.In 1969, human beings landed on the moon.D.Scientists are seriously thinking about how to use the moon.10.What would be the best title for the text?A.Alice Cities-Cities of the Future B.Space Travel with H. G. WellsC.Enjoy Living Underground D.Building Down, Not Up CLake Victoria(维多利亚湖) is the largest lake in Africa. It is also the second largest lake in the world. It is an important lake because it is one of the sources(源头) for the longest river in the world, the Nile River. Lake Victoria provides a source of water, food, and power(电力) for several African countries. Lake Victoria is a big part of African life.Unfortunately, Lake Victoria has a problem. It is shrinking. There are several power stations at Lake Victoria in Uganda. These are on the Nile River, and besides producing power, they keep the water of the lake at a certain level. For the past forty years, that level has been 11.9 meters. Over the last several years, the water level has dropped by about 2.5 meters. There seem to be several reasons for this drop.One possible reason is drought(干旱). Drought has been very bad in the area since 2000. Lake Victoria gets all of its water from rain, so the drought means less water in the lake.However, some environmentalists believe that the real problem is the power plants(工厂) on Lake Victoria. Uganda depends on those power plants for most of its power, and they made the power plants larger in 2000. Many people believe the power plants have been taking too much water off Lake Victoria. As a result, they have been asked to use less water until Lake Victoria goes back to its old level.Whether the low water level is caused by drought or power plants, the result is the same. This is already a poor area of Africa, where many people live a really hard life. People, animals and plants around Lake Victoria will suffer even more from low water levels on the lake. Many people need Lake Victoria for fishing or growing food. Fish need the water to live, and animals need it for water. Plants around the lake will die without the water, and then more animals and people will suffer. Unless the lake fills soon, many people will suffer and die.11. Lake Victoria is _.A. an important lake in Africa B. the largest lake in the world C. the source of water, food and power for America D. the only source for the Nile River12. What does “It is shrinking”in the third paragraph most probably mean? A. It is becoming larger. B. It is becoming more beautiful. C. It is becoming smaller. D. It is becoming more useful.13. The water level of Lake Victoria is now _.A. 2.5 meters B. 11.9 meters C. 14.4 meters D. 9.4 meters14. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Rain water is the only source for the lake.B. There has been little rain in the lake area since 2000. C. The power plants in Uganda provide water for the lake.D The power plants in Uganda were made larger in 2000. 15. According to the passage, how can we solve the problems around Lake Victoria?A. People must build more power plants.B. More sources of water must be found. C. Every country should offer some money to Africa.D. All the people living in the area should move to another place.四.选词填空（10分）A. 阅读短文，从方框中选择适当的单词填空（每词限用一次）。 kinds provides largest for easilyAntarctic(南极洲）is a very interesting place.
